ChangeSet@1.1764, 2004-04-01 13:53:47-08:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Fix swp_entry_t encoding From: Martin Schwidefsky This fixes a problem in sys_swapon that can cause the creation of invalid swap ptes. This has its cause in the arch-independent swap entries vs. the pte coded swap entries. The swp_entry_t uses 27 bits for the offset and 5 bits for the type. In sys_swapon this definition is used to find how many swap devices and how many pages on each device there can be. But the swap entries encoded in a pte can be subject to additional restrictions due to the hardware besides the 27/5 division of the bits in the swp_entry_t type. This is solved by adding pte_to_swp_entry and swp_entry_to_pte calls to the calculations for maximum type and offset. In addition the s390 swap pte division for offset/type is changed from 19/6 bits to 20/5 bits.

The main thrust is to ensure that VM_ACCOUNT actually only gets set on vma's which are indeed accountable. With that ensured much of the rest comes out in the wash. It also removes the hugetlb memory for the overcommit_memory=2 case.

ChangeSet@1.1749, 2004-04-01 13:50:36-08:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] ppc64: allow MAP_FIXED hugepage mappings From: David Gibson On PowerPC64 the "low" hugepage range (at 2-3G for use by 32-bit processes) needs to be activated before it can be used. hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() automatically activates the range for hugepage mappings in 32-bit processes which are not MAP_FIXED. However for MAP_FIXED mmap()s, even at a suitable address will fail if the region is not already activated, because there is no suitable callback from the generic MAP_FIXED code path into the arch code. This patch corrects this problem and allows PPC64 to do MAP_FIXED hugepage mappings in the low hugepage range.

Fortunately this is only used in a few places.

Note that the change the iSeries_setup is a little subtle: ea is set to __va(pa) above, so "phys_to_abs(pa)" is the same as "virt_to_abs(ea)". Also, REALADDR is renamed to ISERIES_HV_ADDR and used in a couple of places where appropriate.

In its defense, the original patch did solve some fixes that could be duplicated on SMP machines, but the side affect of the patch caused lots of problems. Basically it caused kobjects to get their references incremented when files that are not present in the kobject are asked for (udev can easily trigger this when it looks for files call "dev" in directories that do not have that file). This can cause easy oopses when the VFS later ages out those old dentries and the kobject has its reference finally released (usually after the module that the kobject lived in was removed.) I will continue to work with Maneesh to try to solve the original bug, but for now, this patch needs to be applied.

Here's the other one: ChangeSet@1.1726, 2004-03-30 10:51:56-08:00, benh@kernel.crashing.org [PATCH] ppc64: Add a sync in context switch on SMP For the same reason as ppc32, we need to ensure that all stores done on a CPU has reached the coherency domain and are visible to loads done by another CPU when context switching as the same thread may be rescheduled almost right away there. ChangeSet@1.1725, 2004-03-30 10:51:44-08:00, benh@kernel.crashing.org [PATCH] ppc32: PCI mmap update This updates the ppc32 PCI mmap facility to allow mmap'ing of space outside of the actual devices, using the host bridge resources instead. This allow userland to map things like legacy IO space by either using the bridge device itself, or simply any PCI device on the same bus domain ChangeSet@1.1724, 2004-03-30 10:51:30-08:00, benh@kernel.crashing.org [PATCH] ppc32: Allow PREEMPT with SMP in KConfig On ppc32, CONFIG_PREEMPT wasn't settable along with CONFIG_SMP for historical reasons (smp_processor_id() races). Those races have been fixes since then (well, should have been at least) so it's now safe to allow both options. ChangeSet@1.1723, 2004-03-30 10:51:17-08:00, benh@kernel.crashing.org [PATCH] ppc32: context switch fixes This fixes a few issues with context switch on ppc32: - Makes sure we properly flush out all stores to the coherency domain when switching out, since the same thread could be switched back in on another CPU right away, those stores must be visible to all other CPUs. - Remove dssall in the assembly calls and do it now once in switch_mm (stop vmx streams). Assume the G5 doesn't need a sync after dssall. - Remove bogus isync in the loop setting the userland segment registers - Do not switch the userland segments when the mm stays the same ChangeSet@1.1722, 2004-03-30 10:51:04-08:00, benh@kernel.crashing.org [PATCH] ppc32: Remove duplicate export enable_kernel_fp is exported both in ppc_ksyms and near it's definition in process.c, remove the former. ChangeSet@1.1721, 2004-03-30 10:50:51-08:00, benh@kernel.crashing.org [PATCH] ppc32: Even more preempt fixes Add a warning if enable_kernel_{fp,altivec} is called with preempt enabled since this is always an error, and make sure the alignement exception handler properly disables preempt when doing FP operations.

ChangeSet@1.1717.2.3, 2004-03-30 10:41:57-08:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Make pdflush run at nice 0 Since pdflush was converted to be launched by the kthread infrastructure it has inherited keventd's `nice -10' setting. That hurts interactivity when pdflush is doing lots of work writing back through the dm-crypt layer. So set pdflush back to `nice 0'. ChangeSet@1.1717.2.2, 2004-03-30 10:41:44-08:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] catch errors when completing bio pairs From: Mike Christie A couple of drivers can sometimes fail the first segments in a bio then requeue the rest of the request. In this situation, if the last part of the bio completes successfully bio_pair_end_* will miss that the beginging of the bio had failed becuase they just return one when bi_size is not yet zero. The attached patch moves the error value test before the bi_size to catch the above case. ChangeSet@1.1717.2.1, 2004-03-30 10:41:31-08:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Fix BLKPREP_KILL From: Jens Axboe Samuel Rydh wrote: If a MODE_SENSE(6) command is sent to an IDE cd using the CDROM_SEND_PACKET ioctl, then the kernel freezes solidly. To reproduce this, one can take the SCSI cmd [1a 08 31 00 10 00] and a 16 byte data buffer. After some bug hunting, I found out that the following is what happens: - ide-cd recognizes that MODE_SENSE(6) isn't supported and tries to abort the request from ide_cdrom_prep_pc by returning BLKPREP_KILL. - in elv_next_request(), the kill request is handled by the following code: while (end_that_request_first(rq, 0, rq->nr_sectors)) ; end_that_request_last(rq); The while loop never exits. The end_that_request_first() doesn't do anything since rq->nr_sectors is 0; it just returns "not-done" after handling those 0 bytes (rq->bio->bi_size is 16).

Rusty did not like the __dot_sym approach and suggested instead: 1) make rem, urem, mul, umul, div and udiv aliases to .rem, .urem etc: extern int rem(int, int) __attribute__((weak,alias(".rem"))); 2) EXPORT_SYMBOL(rem) etc. 3) Check genksyms recognises that prototype (it should). 4) Copy "dedotify" from ppc64 to handle them on load. The only real downside is the risk that someone else will export those names, but I think that's pretty unlikely.
